Field Trip to the Dairy Farm

Today was Jack's final school fieldtrip of the year, and we headed to the local dairy farm.

(you may recall when Kara went there with her class a couple of years ago ...)

At first this was as close as Jack would get to the dairy cows ...

And he didn't really like the idea of feeding the goats out of his hand ...

But the hayrack ride was lots of fun ...

Finally Jack perked up and agreed to feed the baby calves ...

And he couldn't wait to take a turn to climb up on the big tractor.

We finished the day by watching them make fresh cheese right on the farm.

And of course, we purchased some of those fresh cheese curds to eat on our way home : )
